Group 1 Sponge Scientific name: Porifera A Sponge never moves. It stays in the same place all its life. It reproduces sexually. The male and female release the sperm and ova into the water to make a new sponge. It lives in salt-water, in the seas and oceans all around the world. How does it feed? Look at the diagram. Water moves through the holes. The sponge takes the nutrients and then the water leaves the sponge. http://www.youtu be.com/watch?v= T7E1rq7zHLc
